Beautiful, elegant, unique and one of a kind half moon Howlite Turquoise stone.
Approx size 29x14x5mm
Turquoise is one of the oldest protection amulets, and was also known as a symbol of wealth in many ancient cultures.
If
given a turquoise by a loving friend, that stone would protect the
wearer from negative energy and bring good fortune. The turquoise is the
symbol of friendship. It also brings peace to the home.
This stone is a very personal and meaningful stone to one who wears it. Turquoise takes on the characteristics of the owner.

* Coconut have a very low melting point and low freezing point. * In the winter this item may be shipped in a jar *In the summer, this item may be shipped with the pump
Please see drop down list for additional scents available.
Coconut
Oil acts as an antioxidant that plumps & firms skin to stimulate
cellular activity, fights the effects of aging & repairs rough,
damaged skin. It is an excellent moisturizer & has extraordinary
anti-aging abilities.
• Has tremendous moisturizer adds elasticity to skin & is high in antioxidants to slow down the skins aging process • Protects us from the sun, due to its rich content of vitamins E & F. • Helps to restore elasticity & moisture to the skin • Absorbs quickly, leaving skin soft & silky, not greasy • Amazing ability to heal the skin & block the damaging effects of UV radiation from the sun.

**COCONUT
OIL has a melting point of about 75 degrees and will melt during the
warm months while shipping and will freeze during the colder months.
That is normal. I alter the lotion from a pump bottle in the summer
months to a jar in the winter months so that it is easy for you to use
it.
For the summer time: If your product becomes liquid due to
hot weather, simply put the lotion in your refrigerator for about an
hour, then take it out, mix it well and you are good to go.
In the winter, leave the jar out at normal temperatures and it will be ready to use in under an hour.

Good Morning, Today we have five truly unique and individual items for the men on your list. All items are from the talented artists on The Craft Star. Masculine, sturdy, strong and handmade designs make for wonderful and unexpected gifts thus holiday. From: Neolithia
This is "Bug Eyes", both beautiful and natural stone wearble art,
hand carved from two different pieces of Dracocite. The translucent
green hand carved beady eyes are strung on natural hemp cord that holds
them in the ET's head. The adjustable closure beads are also hand carved
from Dracocite, eliminating the use of metal. Wear this rare healing
stone and feel its power. This is truly a piece of fantasy pulled from
the mind of the Beastmaster and is also signed.
Dimensions: 1 9/16" W x 1 1/4" H x 3/8" Thick
The
artist holds a BS in geology and presents this unique personal
sculpture not only as "green" but as a statement against ecodamage. It
was made from scrap from a 1901 ornamental stone cutting operation and
if allowed, will slowly degrade by sequestration of CO2, the only
natural stone to alter in this manner. Minimal care will prevent this
alteration, however.
By request and for a nominal fee, I will
write the "life" story of this particular piece of stone, illustrating
the "living" nature of this stone's amazing genesis, beginning over 300
million years ago before multicellular life was known to exist on Earth.
Gorgeous brass deer pendant necklace attached to a matte brass chain.
Deer has clear stones to add sparkle and shine. The necklace measures
22.5" and has a 3" extender. Deer pendant measures 1" wide by 1 3/4"
long. A great necklace that will complete your holiday look.

Good Morning, This morning's post is brief, as we introduce Pantone's Color of the Year for 2016, there are two.
Basically they are pastel pink and blue. Nice, but not very designer friendly, unless you design for children under five.
Although there is a gemstone Rose Quartz that can be found occurring naturally as a very soft pastel pink, it can also be dyed to a uniform deeper color. The Alchemists Vessel carries a limited selection of Rose Quartz Jewelry.
This bracelet has sold, but as example of the very soft pink color of the natural stone. Or you can always go with good old pink.
Pastel Blue is a bit harder, about as close as the artist can get to it is Turquoise, or Blue Lace Agate, light blue Czech Glass beads in colors like "aqua" or "ice blue".
2016, is going to make for interesting color combination and jewelry design.
In hope you have enjoyed this brief look at next year's favorite colors.
Thank you for stopping in and having a look. Don't forget to stop by the shop and see what is available. Looking forward to serving you this year and next. The Alchemists Vessel would like to wish you a pleasant day.

Good Morning, This morning I wanted to share some wonderful tips from another blog post on finding your Target and Niche Markets. I have left out the personal story that accompanied the original post and have tried to leave it at just the tips. Links are also included. Originally posted by Brenda Lavell in August 2013, it has just been re-posted or circulated on Etsy as of last week. I hope you will find the information useful.
The Difference Between Target and Niche Markets
Target market is
a group of potential customers who share characteristics related to
your product. For instance, “knitters” could be my target market.
Niche market further
defines a target market. For instance, “beginning female knitters who
love Etsy, ages 20 to 35, living in New England” is more defined.
When you define and understand your niche market, you can target your marketing efforts to that group of people.
Narrowing Your Niche Market
Further defining your niche market is crucial to
finding your actual ideal customers — those who will become true fans
for your business and products. A true fan wants to hear everything
about your business, including sales, tutorials, and new product
launches. Posting product links 24/7 to thousands of
non-targeted social media followers is unfocused and not likely to
attract very many buyers. However, offering Coupon Codes for your mailing list of ideal customers is targeted and very likely to result in many sales. I don’t need to tell you that promoting your business
all day long is exhausting — it’s a lot of work for little return.
Promoting is about me me me — your products. Marketing is about you — your customers’ needs and problems. When you know who those customers are, you know or can more accurately guess their needs.
How to Find Your Ideal Customer(s)
A target market is a group of characteristics, not a
person. You can personalize your target market by creating your very own
ideal customer, a fictional character with individual, human
characteristics — a true fan that you make up on paper or just in your
head.
Then, instead of marketing to a group of people, you market to just one person, your true fan.
Get the Ideal Customer WorksheetTo
create this ideal person, you need to dive deep into this persona’s
psyche. There really is no right answer to who this person is, as long
as your creation makes sense (for example, “a super modern fashionista
who doesn’t knit” does not make sense for my yarn shop). Use this target market worksheet template to help you create your own ideal customer.
Once you’ve created your ideal person to market to,
make sure you truly understand your customer’s needs and problems. How
do your products fulfill and solve both? Your marketing should
successfully connect your ideal customer’s problems with your products.
Engaging With Your Ideal Customer(s)
Write everything specifically to your ideal customer,
from product descriptions to blog posts to emails. Use your customer’s
perspective and address his/her needs and problems in your own voice.
Let’s work through an example:
Jewelry is a huge category on Etsy. Jewelry lovers
have different needs (for example, metal sensitivities) and problems
(for example, the perfect earrings for a special date).
How do you connect with your ideal customer who is a
true fan of your particular style and construction of earrings, while
addressing both her needs and problems?
First, make sure your photos are truly stunning, and
that your text and keywords are specifically written to your customer
from his/her perspective, using your authentic voice. Success Tips: Read
these photography pointers and How to Write Enticing Item Descriptions.
Write blog or other social media posts that engage
(about how you problem-solve, behind-the-scenes glimpses, etc.), with
keywords specific to your customer and links to your products. Success
Tip: Read these social media tips.
Use your mailing list to draw people back to those blog posts as well as to your products directly.
Balance links to your products with valuable content.
When your potential customer turns into a real
customer, start building actual relationships. Learn about their
interests and needs by talking with them via your Facebook business page
or at craft shows. You’ll be able to further refine your niche market
while turning one-off customers into repeat buyers.
I thought there was a “trick” to finding your target
market, then learned that finding my target market is just a process.
Defining my ideal customer was key, as well as effectively engaging via social media.
You can find your own target market by creating and
engaging with your ideal customer — I’d love to hear your insights and
questions in comments.
Thank you for stopping in and having a look.
The Alchemists Vessel would like to wish you a pleasant day.

Handmade Mosaic large Lazy Susan. I found this vintage Lazy Susan which had been discarded for its terrible looks. I
sanded, primed, and painted it white, distressed it a bit, covered the
top with a handmade Mosaic made from already damaged cut up vintage fine
bone china plate rims and stained glass. The mosaic also has two lil
porcelain girls in them who used to have a couple of feather angel
wings, which I removed. The mosaic is grouted in a antique white grout
and sealed. It still turns very nicely, as a lazy susan should. Measurements: 16 inches in diameter and 2 inches high Uses are endless, one can use it for the obvious in the dining room now for your condiments, napkins etc. In your office for your pencil holders, scissor, the cup with pens, scotch tape and such.... In the baby's room for the powders, creams, wipes and lotions, one turn around and everything is right handy. I
am sure one can find even that your cup cakes look fabulous on them,
even a cake. Or just set it on the counter and have your guest admire
your treasure. Thank you for looking
